William Havu Gallery

Opening Reception, 5-8 pm
James Pringle Cook Interior Paintings, and on the Mezzanine Lynn Boggess. James Pringle Cook (b.1947) is an American painter known nationally for expressive, monumental landscapes and urban scenes that employ vigorous brushwork and thick, impasto surfaces and move between realism and passages of abstraction .Museum Director Robert Yassin described Cook as "a painter who is in love with painting [whose] bravura use of paint is akin to the abstract expressionists; unlike them, however, he provides viewers with a recognizable reality, ordered by his own personal vision and controlled by his technical mastery."

Cook has exhibited throughout the United States and in Canada in more than seventy solo exhibitions, including shows at the Tucson Museum of Art, Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art and Roswell Museum and Art Center, and group exhibits at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and Wichita Art Museum, among many. His work has been featured in Arts Magazine, American Artist and New American Paintings (vol. 12, 24, 36), major newspapers including the Chicago Tribune, Arizona Daily Star, Philadelphia Inquirer and The New Mexican, and television news features in Dallas, Phoenix and Tucson. More than seventy museum and public collections hold Cook's work, including the Denver Art Museum, Phoenix Art Museum, and Milwaukee Art Museum.

Friday, February 7
Visions West Contemporary

Opening Reception, 6-8 pm
Two Solo Exhibitions: Erika Osborne: The Love Language of Fire and Daphne Sweet: She Rides the Sky. These exhibitions explore themes of environmental resilience, mythic landscapes, and feminine power through dynamic and thought-provoking works.

Daphne Sweet delves into the mythic landscapes of the American West, where starry horses and golden cows serve as symbols of feminine power and transformation. Drawing from personal narratives and Western mythology, Sweet's works traverse boundless skies and endless horizons, presenting themes of freedom, resilience, and self-discovery. Blending intricate detail with expansive, contemporary compositions, Sweet reimagines archetypes through the interplay of myth and reality. The starry horse embodies untethered grace, while the golden cow offers a grounding presence, together creating a visual dialogue that celebrates the enduring strength and complexity of women within vast and storied spaces.

 

Erika Osborne's The Love Language of Fire examines the evolving relationship between humanity and wildfire in the forests of the western United States. Once a vital force nurturing ecosystems, wildfire has become catastrophic due to a legacy of fire suppression, poor forest management, and human-induced climate change. Yet, Osborne's work reveals the astounding resilience of these woodlands-how they heal through the emergence of plant medicines and the regeneration of flora such as Aspen, Fireweed, and Lupine.

The McKenney-Hall Indian Gallery.
Thomas McKenney was appointed Superintendent of Indian Affairs in 1916 by President James Madison. He championed Native American causes for the next several decades at a time when tribal culture was often on a collision course with land-hungry whites and the U.S. Government. McKenney worked tirelessly on his Indian Gallery, a collection of artifacts and portraits of the visiting Indians by the famous painter Charles Bird King. However, in 1830, McKenney was dismissed by President Jackson -- they had quarreled about the removal of the Cherokee from their homeland. McKinley had also battled with a Congressional committee investigating his expenditure of $3,100 for the Indian portraits. Therefore, it was on his own that he launched a project to publish a series of large portfolios with hand-colored lithographs made after King's original paintings. More information

Two concurrent solo exhibitions this December, offering an evening of artistic exploration, bold storytelling, and cultural depth. From June Glasson's thought-provoking depictions of women's labor to Marcos Lucero's surrealist dreamscapes, these shows promise to dazzle, challenge, and inspire.

 

Returning for her third solo exhibition at our Denver gallery, June Glasson once again demonstrates her ability to captivate audiences with her profound, insightful art. This time, she turns her focus to women's work. Her new series explores the material and symbolic labor that women perform - sometimes voluntarily, sometimes not - and asks us to reflect on how that work shapes identities, communities, and histories.

Also exhibiting, the vibrant world of Marcos Lucero, whose debut solo exhibition at Visions West Contemporary bursts with color, imagination, and cultural resonance. Lucero's pieces blend human figures, animals, and touches of surrealism to create whimsical narratives that feel both fantastical and deeply grounded in tradition.
